  • A Parallel Neural Networks Algorithm for the Clique Partitioning Problem 
    Harmanani, Haidar M. (2016-04-12)
    This paper presents a parallel algorithm to solve the Clique Partitioning Problem, an NP-complete problem. Given a graph G = (V, E), a clique is a complete subgraph in G. The clique partitioning problem is to partition ...
  • A parallel optimization algorithm for the maximum clique problem. (c2008) 
    Rizk, Mohamad A. (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-25)
    Recent advances in exact algorithm design and multi-processor industry have led to an increasing interest in exact (or optimal) solutions for hard problems. This interest was also motivated by the emergence of parameterized ...
  • Parallel physical optimization algorithms for allocating data to multicomputer nodes 
    Mansour, Nashat; Fox, Geoffrey C. (2016-01-25)
    Three parallel physical optimization algorithms for allocating irregular data to multicomputer nodes are presented. They are based on simulated annealing, neural networks and genetic algorithms. All three algorithms deviate ...
  • Parallel processing 
    Mansour, Nashat; Fox, Geoffrey C. (Springer, 2018-05-24)
    Parallel algorithms, based on simulated annealing, neural networks and genetic algorithms, for mapping irregular data to multicomputers are presented and compared. The three algorithms deviate from the sequential versions ...
  • Parallel scatter search algorithms for exam timetabling. (c2009) 
    Haidar, Ghia Abdullah Sleiman (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-27)
    University exam timetabling is an important activity for scheduling exams into predefined days, time periods and rooms. Given a set of constraints, exam timetabling is an NP-Hard problem that requires heuristic techniques ...
  • A parallel search tree algorithm for vertex cover on graphical processing units. (c2013) 
    Kabbara, Rashad Karim (Lebanese American University, 2013-11-18)
    Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) have become popular recently due their highly parallel shared-memory architectures. The computational challenge posed by NP-Hard problems makes them potential targets to GPU-based ...
  • Parallelizing Instance-Based Data Classifiers 
    Haraty, Ramzi; Rahal, Imad; Furst, Emily (Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence, 2018-02-26)
  • Parameterized Algorithms for Finding Small Independent Dominating Sets in Planar Graphs

  • Paramétrisation de la vitesse de propagation d'une flamme turbulente via l'équation G 
    Touma, Rony (Université de Montréal, 2018-09-06)
  • Paraplegia following intraoperative celiac plexus injection 
    Abdalla, Eddie; Schell, Scott (2015-11-09)
    The technique for percutaneous and open neurolytic celiac plexus injection, using ethanol or phenol, for relief of intractable pancreatic cancer pain has been well described. Prospective randomized studies, demonstrating ...
  • Paraspinal arteriovenous malformations in children 
    Kitagawa, Ryan S.; Mawad, Michel E.; Whitehead, William E.; Curry, Daniel J.; Luersen, Thomas G.; Jea, Andrew (2019-07-09)
    Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) within the spinal canal and in the paraspinal region are unusual. Spinal cord and dural AVMs or arteriovenous fistulas have been the subject of numerous reports, but paraspinal malformations ...
  • Parental consanguinity and family history of coronary artery disease strongly predict early stenosis
